Darryl thought his friend Julia had such a cool mother. She would drive Julia and Darryl anywhere they wanted to go: movie theaters, swimming pools, ice cream shops. Darryl's own mother worked in a laboratory all day, doing research. Even on weekends, she read some science books. Daryl loved the way his mom could explain mysterious things about the world and always had interesting stories to share. But sometimes he wished he had a mom who was a little more…well, fun.

One Saturday, Julia and her mom picked up Darryl at his house. They were all going to a big amusement park, Darryl said goodbye to his mom, who was reading.

"Isn't your science project due (预期的) Monday?" she asked him.

"It's almost done," Darryl said, walking out of the door.

At the amusement park, Julia's mom treated them to popcorn and hamburgers. They all challenged each other to go on the fastest, most exciting rides in the park. They laughed and screamed all day long.

Darryl woke up with a bad headache Sunday morning. He was unhappy at the thought of finishing his science project. He heard his mother making breakfast, the same breakfast she made every Sunday: a vegetable omelet (煎蛋饼) and fresh fruit. Usually Darryl wanted a doughnut for breakfast, but the thought of more junk food made him sick. His mother's healthy cooking was just what he needed after such a loud and busy day.

After he ate, his mother helped him finish his science project. When Julia called later, asking Darryl if he wanted to come by, he said no. Maybe next weekend he would be ready for more fun, but not now.

1.What did Darryl and Julia eat at the amusement park?

____________________

2.What's Darryl's mother like?

____________________

3.Do you think a parent like Darryl's mother is also cool? Why or why not?

My mother only had one eye. I hated her， as she was such an embarrassment (难堪）for me. She ran a small shop at a market， selling anything for the money we needed.

One day， my mom came to my school. I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day， my classmates shouted， “Your mom only has one eye! ’’ and they taunted me. My face turned red.

I wished that my mom would just disappear from this world， so I said to her， “Mom， why don’t you have the other eye? You make me a laughingstock.” She didn’t say anything. Maybe it was because my mom hadn’ t punished me， so I didn’ t think that I had hurt her feelings very badly. I decided to study hard so that I could leave her for the rest of my life. I made it at last. Now I’m living happily as a successful man in another country.

Many years later， I received a letter， which said， “I think my life has been long enough now， but would it be too much to ask if I wanted you to visit me once in a while? I’ m sorry that I am an embarrassment for you. You see， when you were very young， you got into an accident， and lost your eye. As a mother， I couldn’t stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye， so I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son that was seeing a whole new world for me， in my place， with that eye. I was never angry with you for any­thing you did. I miss the time when you were still young around me. You mean the world to me. I love you.” I can’t help crying with the letter in my hand.

1.What is the mother’s job?

A. An engineer.　　 B. A doctor.

C. A housewife.　　 D. A seller.

2.What does the underlined word “taunted” mean?

A. Played with.　　 B. Laughed at.

C. Smiled at.　 　　 D. Fought with.

3.Why did I want to leave my mother?

A. Because she was an embarrassment for me.

B. Because she came to my school.

C. Because all of my classmates were afraid of her.

D. Because she was too poor.

4.How did the mother lose her eye?

A. She had an accident.

B. She was born with one eye.

C. One of her eyes was broken.

D. She gave one eye to her son.

5.What will I probably do after reading the letter?

A. I will continue my happy life as before.

B. I will get my mother and live with her.

C. I will call my mother and tell her not to write to me any more.

I've never thought that a money raiser could have had such a huge influence on my life. Back in 5th grade, our school announced a money raiser and each class would get a box to fill it up with small _______. To make my class to come to the first place in the money raiser, I took two fifty-dollar bills _______ to school and put them into the box.

Rita stepped into the cool, moving water. She pushed a black inner tube(内胎) in front of her. She had a worried look on her face because she had never floated down a river before.

“Let me hold your tube while you climb on,” said her father. He smiled at her. “There’s not a cloud in the sky. It’s a great day to be in the river, isn’t it?”

Rita looked out across the water. People were floating by on tubes. Some talked and laughed as they floated easily down the river. Others leaned(倚靠) back with hats pulled over their faces. None of them looked terrified.

“We’ll stay together,” said Rita’s father. “I’ll hold on to your rope(绳子).”

Rita looked at her tube. It gently(轻轻地) moved up and down in the water. She saw a girl of her own age float by. The girl seemed to be having fun. Suddenly Rita’s worries disappeared（消失）.
